How we perceive physical attraction

I never truly thought about my "type", mostly because I have not been in many relationships, and its hard to classify the type of girl that interests me with such little data (in layman terms i have no game)

This bothered me, so I spent a while today trying to figure out what i like in a girl. How? as embarrassing as it is i went through my yearbooks looking for girls i had crushes on, or was attracted to and put two and two together. I found myself talking to friends to see what they look for and i found that almost all of them were attracted to people of similar race or culture (i.e. hispanic or irish) and i found myself to be the same way.

First thing to be said is, I am a brunette guy hands down, not a single girl was blonde or a red head. I found all the girls i had crushes on were either Italian (im half Italian) or part Hispanic/Asian (im half filipian which has been mixed with Spanish blood for so long since Spain invaded them so im basically Hispanic too) almost all of the girls were the same or close to my height and ALL of them had thick asses, or larger thighs (not fat, just huge asses and curvy bodys)

What does this mean, very little but almost all the guys i talked to about who they go for, ended up attracted similar races or cultures (other than my black friends who all like white girls). So this got me thinking, can your genes affect who you are attracted too, or even better are your family responsible for influencing your attraction because of how you pick up on their traits and attributes at a young age. And do you base your analysis of how you perceive people on those traits?

For those who are having troubling understanding my ramblings, imagine it this way; A dog is fed a red food as a puppy, when he is an adult several bowls of different color food are placed in front of him the odds are he will go for the red food first because of its familiarity.

feel free to comment your opinions on how we develop physical attraction.

I'm just gonna say I don't like my girls greasier than my chicken. On a serious note I think the majority of black girls are ugly and flat out stupid. I agree with you tony that's the same way I find the girls I like are similar to me.

What kind of questions are these? Yes. I don't mean to exemplify hindsight bias, but this just seems obvious to me. We are obviously affected by both our genes and the people we're raised around, although the two are not inter-linked. It's a common question of nature vs. nurture, except you've placed them on the same side of this coin.
